You know you've been at Fandom High too long when . . .

[godinakilt.livejournal.com]

In the midst of a flurry of comings and goings, let us pause in this festive season to remember all the good crack that we've smoked these past four months and indulge in a little game of 'You know you've been at Fandom High too long when . . .'

I'll start.

. . . one of the first things your mother says to you after not seeing you for four months is, "Um, why are you getting mail from someone called 'Aziraphale'?"

. . . while giving a tour of campus to a prospective student, the following comes out of your mouth: "This is Liquor Lane, which is actually the best lit part of Fandom." "Excuse me?" "Campus. I meant campus."

. . . the words 'frell' and 'frak' enter your vocabulary, despite having no exposure to said fandom.

. . . you can't help giggling your way through 'Revenge of the Sith' because your mind keeps hearing banthabells.

. . . the words, 'Can't sleep, Fandom High will eat me' have left your mouth.

. . . you start watching 'Power Rangers: SPD' just because of Bridge.

. . . whenever an actor (say, for example, Steve Bacic) is in a show, you involuntarily think, "Squee, that's me!"

Any others?

I AM LOVED!

And of course, when I looked at that link, I thought "Huh. That's not really a very good picture of Phale."

[grins] I got the idea for the initial DanielCraig!Phale icon from seeing the Bond promo pic.

My thought path was like...Blond...English...craggy looking but not too old...Phale! That'll do, must bring it up to the mun.

You can't see a West Wing promo without blushing.

I told the S.O. "Yes, I know it's three in the morning. But THERE ARE ZOMBIES!"

My excuse was "I gotta get Krycek and Beast out of the weapons locker before I can come to bed."

... you're in real life Interpersonal Comm wishing CJ was actually teaching it.

*hums praises instead*

*hugs on poor zombie-deprived mun*

It rocked. And convinced the SO that I was completely insane.

FiveO'clockShadow!Phale. Maybe after a bender on the communion wine?

Phale doesn't drink communion wine. He prefers a nice Chateau Lafitte 1875.

Now if you'll excuse me, my other character has to go assign pretend grades to the pretend students in his pretend class.

Dude, yes, there's this girl on my flist who keeps using Callisto icons, and I'll read her posts and go . . . "but why is she talking about being in England?"

[kikidelivers.livejournal.com]

Hee!

Signs that I am in the wrong line of work:

University: We hate you. You will TA two classes next semester: Biological Oceanography AND Anatomy and Physiology.
Me: OMGWTFBBQ you bastards SUCK.

G.C.: So, TA Poetry and Western Lit?
Me: OMGWTFBBQ YES. *SQUEE*

You know, I really wish I knew what I did that weekend. Evidently, it was nothing important or I would remember it. If I had spent it fighting zombies, then I would remember it, obviously.

[a-phale.livejournal.com]

*uncontrollable laughter*

That's okay. After our little exchange, I went into other room and said "Hey! Kiki's going to TA for me next term!"

Response: "You know it's not a real class, right?"

When is someone going to get on Cafe Press and make those damned Zombie Weekend t-shirts so I can BUUUUUUYYYY one? *wails*

...You answer to your character's name in public.

...Um. You have Plans for the nativity scene that goes under the Christmas tree. The mini Rory tree would be cool, but of all the things you could do, you need the gremlin baby Jesus.

...You've blamed something on a gremlin bite.

...You've called shows by their Fandom names. (Law and Order is now Crime and Justice, etc.)

...You've started rewatching shows you gave up on years ago simply because the character is cool.

...You giggled all through GoF wondering why Draco's not off banging Harry's mom.

i agree with the last one on there and I got all excited when I was flipping the channels and saw Dean Bristow up on Alias.

I stayed up all night fighting zombies and left for the airport at 4:45 AM. When my flight landed, my mom & sister were like "Why'd you stay up all night?" and I said "Because I was fighting zombies!"
